The data set shown below represents the number of times some families went out for dinner the previous week. 4, 2, 2, 0, 1, 6, 3

, 2, 5, 1, 2, 4, 0, 1 An unnumbered number line labeled numbers of dinners out. Create a dot plot to represent the data. What can you conclude about the dot plot of the data set? Select the three best answers. The range of the number line should be 0 to 7 to represent the frequency. Four families said they ate out twice the previous week. One family said they ate out 5 times the previous week. The data set is symmetrical. The median best represents the data set.

Dot plots are used to represent data using dots

The true statements about the dataset are:

The range of the number line should be 0 to 7 to represent the frequency.
Four families said they ate out twice the previous week.
One family said they ate out 5 times the previous week

The dataset is given as:

4, 2, 2, 0, 1, 6, 3, 2, 5, 1, 2, 4, 0, 1

Rearrange in ascending order

0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 4, 4, 5, 6

Represent as a frequency table

Data Frequency

0 2

1 2

2 4

3 0

4 2

5 1

6 1

See attachment for the dot plot

From the attachment, we can see that:

4 has a frequency of 2
5 has a frequency of 1

Also, the range on the dot plot can be 0 to 7, because it covers the given dataset

Hence, the true statements are: (a), (b) and (c)
